Welcome to Episode 14 in my 2024 Monday Music Matters “Song-A-Week” series of stories in memory and in honour of my daughter, Kait
I wrote this bilingual song to teach little ones some basic French words and what better way to teach that age group than to start with dogs, cats, birds and fish – your usual pets found in a home.
I really love how my co-producer, Greg, captured the animals sonically with the instrument choices for each of them and the way he played them. My favourite is the fish.

Another song to share with your little ones and for teachers and caregivers of little ones.
